For security reasons, the Tunisian government banned spectators from professional football league games. To continue the support for the C.S Hammam-Lif team’s most important game, the app asked fans to tap different sound icons on their smartphones while watching the game live on TV. The taps were translated into the corresponding sounds played by 40 speakers in the stadium. The app was advertised prior to the game, resulting in 93,100 participating fans and 1.2 million others watching the game. The team won the game.
